Class again was boring and she knew that soon she would be out of there and back to square one with her detention hour to serve. Perhaps it wouldn’t be that bad…She sighed looking up to see Zeru leave. Poor guy looked a little preoccupied. She gave a small hope that he was okay and tried to focus again on what the teacher was saying. That was more like trying to focus on someone talking with techno in the background, not easy to do if you really want to attain anything from it. So she gave up eventually and tried to tune out the class. What was up with today, it was like the world was out to get her. Not like she was complaining but nearly being squished by a beam was far from her list of exciting things to do in a day. Finally the bell rung and she got to her feet, grabbing her bag and things. “Time for detention…” She huffed, walking back towards her Math class. The teacher of course was gone when she got there, and all that was there was a broom, a pan and white board cleaner. “Seriously? I get detention and now I’m the maid?!” She tossed her bag on a desk and grabbed the cloth and white board cleaner. “Might as well get it done with before the audition and the teacher comes back and makes me stay longer.” She rolled up her sleeves and began to wipe down the board quickly. She looked at one of the messages left by the teacher and saw that the teacher wanted her to take down the posters hanging above she board. She tapped her lip, not knowing she got marker dust smudged on her cheek. She pulled a chair over from the side of the room and got on it but still had to reach with her tip toes to grab the papers. She was still having trouble reaching so she hopped slightly, nabbing the corner of one. She tugged but it wouldn’t come down. “Seriously” She gave it another tug and finally got half of it down. After another bit of struggling she finally got it down completely but she sighed when she noticed the rest. “One down and 6 to go…”

Zeru waited out his other two classes in the infirmary just lying on the table to clear his head or even take a nap. Though the nurse kept bugging him that he was fine to go back to class but he kept telling her that he felt like throwing up even though he really didn’t. Finally when the last bell rang he thanks the nurse giving her a smile and she just melted. Zeru made his way back down the hallways to his locker to get his things. can’t you just admit it Zeru, you aren’t normal and you never have been so why don’t you stop acting normal[/i] Zeru placed his hand to his forehead again hoping that he would stop. But he just kept going on and on and Zeru now felt like throwing up he as so dizzy “Would you just shut up for a moment!” He called out and Jett actually shut up. Something was wrong, he could feel it.
Zeru looked around the hallway but nothing was looking strange to him so he kept walking a little further looking into the classrooms and then stopped. He stared through the door for a moment and then realized who it was ‘She is going to fall’ Zeru thought to himself and then he walked through the door and then walked a little closer to her so in case she did fall he was right there to catch her “ “You know for someone who almost had a beam fall on their head you are pretty reckless to be up on a chair like that” Zeru laughed a little though he wasn’t trying to be mean to her “Would you like some help?” He offered to her after a minute and then reached up from where he was standing and pulled a banner down. She really was cute on her tip toes trying to get a poster down awe, look at you. You are getting sweet on the little American girl…guess what comes after the sweet part…[/i] Jett started laughing at his sick joke and Zeru just winced a little, he knew what Jett was getting at but Zeru would never let it go that far. The girl just worried him a little, she seemed like a real klutz and he wondered how she even made it this far in life with not killing herself.

Yukina jumped at the sound of a voice near her and nearly lost balance. She wobbled a bit but caught her self on the board. She breathed a sigh of relief at not falling on her ass, especially when she looked over and saw it was Zeru. "Oh hey-again." She said with a smile, pushing off the board and stepping down from the chair. She was glad he had at least gotten the poster down. She at least made him laugh too though it was about her trying to stretch her luck as far as it could go. "Well someone has to get this done and the teacher asked if I could. But looks like I misjudged the height a bit." though she wasnt too happy cleaning she would do it, just because he had told her to. She didnt like to make people disappointed neither did she like bothering them. She didn't want Zeru to have to worry over her, especially when he wasn't feeling well in the last class. "Thanks, but I don't want to trouble you with this. After all it was my fault I was late so much." She said, not wanting to be a bother.

Zeru jumped a little and then cradled his arms just in case she fell but she was glad when she didn't. He pulled down a couple more posters and laid them on the teachers desk "I don't mind really" he told her as he took down the last poster and then turned to her wondering why she was here after school doing work for a teacher. Zeru set his backpack down and took off his jacket then he walked over to her and gently pushed her out of the classroom "I'm sure you have better things to do then stay here at the school and clean. I'll finish up here" he told her after pushing her out of the class and then closed the door cause he was sure that she would protest but actually for him cleaning would sooth his mind a little. Plus when Zeru got in a cleaning mood Jett left him alone and his home was already clean not to mention his dad was started to get a little irritated that Zeru cleaned all the time.
With that settled he turned around and looked at everything that needed to be done and when he was finished the teacher would be so impressed at the work that Yuki shouldn't get into anymore trouble. Though that also depended on if the teacher wasn't an ass. He took a deep breath and then walked over to the chalk board cleaning all the chalk off and then getting the board cleaner so that it would shine. Next he worked on the erasers and pounded those together outside the window. Next would be the floors and then all the desks and lastly taking out the trash. Zeru had spend many times in detention when he was younger to know what the teachers expected now also not to mention it was common sense to him now. If things were clean and orderly his brain wasn't so much a mess either and Jett would leave him alone so Zeru learned to enjoy cleaning. Also he liked to be nice to pretty girls and Yuki was very pretty though that was only part of his reason for taking over the cleaning, he was also worried that she would hurt herself cleaning as well.

Yukina was surprised when Zeru sent her out of the class and she let out a small beinging of a protest only to have a door shut in her face. She frowned, not mad just confused. Just why was he being so nice and why would he want to do her punishment for her? She sighed wanting to at least thank him for getting her off the hook but the she heard the alarm on her cellphone go off. "Oh no-can't be late!" She said as she toook of in a run down the halls. She arrived downtown after a long ride on the train and a very long walk to the dance studio. When she got there she instantly went to the change room peeling off layers of clothes till she put on her leotard and shoes and her hair up in a high bun. She slipped into the dance studio room to find the girls practicing a group number. Yukina waiting till they got a bit closer before she slipped into the group and joined them. She started out clumsily and nearly tripping over her own feet but soon fell into sync with the others. This was where her grace shone through, in a simple dance that brought out her talent for it. She kept up and even perfected some of the moves and preformance sets that were required. When the dance was over the instructors at the front of the room clapped and the girls hurried away, laughing and talking amoungst themselves. Before Yukina could exit with them her Instrustor called her over. "Oi Yukina!" She turned, nearly tripping over herself nervously. "H-Hai, Semi-sensei?" She asked uneasily and her instructor raise a brow at her. "the time...Very close today Yuki?" "Y-Yes Semi-sensei." She said, this time looking down in disapointment. Had she messed up by coming in? Did she already ruin her chances? Yukina felt the worry attacking her heart especially when she heard the other instructor clear his throat. "Please proceed with your audition." SHe looked up at them, eyes wide with surprise. They were silent and Yukina realized she was wasting time by standing there. "Oh-oh! ofcourse! I mean thank you." She moved to the center of the room, giving a few stretched before poising on her toes, waiting for the music to begin.
Yukina left the studio when it was growing dark and the cool air had already settled. She pulled her jacket close to her and made her way to the train station. Sure her instructor had said it was dangerous to walk around down town at night but she was only a half a mile from the train station. Besides after she took the train it was just a two block walk to her apartment. She thought back on earlier as she walked down the street, her audition coming to mind. The instructors hadn't said a thing through the entire audition but also never stopped her. They didn't say anything as she finsished either, just a small "thank you" before sending her out the door. She was worried what that meant but didn't have the guts to dwell on it. If she lost that part because of her own inability she would feel horrible...but again she had no idea, she wouldn't know for a bit or until her instructor decided to call. She walked along the street keeping to the lit areas of the side walk. It was rather quiet now, though of course crowds were dispersed as well as people. She didn't feel in the least bit unsafe. Then again she was in her own little world of thought now and it was really hard to snap her out of it once she started.

Zeru had finally finished cleaning the classroom from top to bottom and was satisfied that it practically sparkled. Are you done yet Jett snapped when Zeru started to head out of the classroom "Maybe" he replied keeping his attention a little to the floor just in case there was anyone still at the school. You just want to torture me some more by doing more cleaning. What's next? You gonna clean your homeroom too. And another thing, why did you do that for that chick? What's so special about her that you would do something for her? Zeru rolled his eyes, this was the first time that it sounded like Jett was lecturing him, usually Jett encouraged certain behaviors. "I can do what I want when I want Jett. It's my body so you can stop that tone right now" he said as he picked up his bag and slung it over his shoulder to make his way outside.
"Look Jett, there's just something about her that I want to...I dunno. I like to be around her. She's different then the others, she's weird, awkward and klutzy. She's interesting" Zeru finally told him as he left the school grounds and started home. There were still things that needed to be done and he was sure that his father hadn't even left the house today. Zeru made it home quickly and walked through the door setting his backpack at the door and taking his shoes off. "I'm home" Zeru called out waiting to hear from his dad "Welcome back. How was your day?" He heard from some room in the back of the house, most likely his fathers study. "Same as always, besides the fact that Jett wouldn't shut up today" Damn straight
Zeru walked into the kitchen getting himself a snack before he started on his homework or before he even attempted try and clean his fathers room or study. Those were the two places that he normally left alone for a while but since he started cleaning at the school he wanted to clean some more. "Same as always?" His father questioned appearing in the kitchen "Well...I met a girl" "Really? Like met a girl or you 'met' a girl" Zeru sighed heavily "I just met a girl and helped her out with cleaning a classroom cause she looked like a real klutz" he said and just walked out of the kitchen without his snack "I'm going to go get out of my uniform and then I will be cleaning your room and study" Zeru called as he walked into his room "Oh no your not" he heard his father call back to him in panic and then rushed footsteps to the back of the house. Zeru couldn't help but start laughing and even Jett found it funny.

Yukina opened her door and gave a heavy sigh at just how tired she felt. She wanted to sleep but she was hungry enough to keep her awake and made her way to the small kitchen instead. She lived in an okay apartment with a tiny kitchen, tv room/dinning room and one bed room area. It wasn't large enough for more than one, or a small couple. Not that she needed extra space, she was alone here. But she couldn't complain. While her mother was in the States in the hospital, her father paid for her to live here. It was a nice deal, kind on his part to help the daughter he never met...still hadn't met actually. The only person connected to her father she had met was his assistant Mr. Takano who was a rather cold individual. He had set up this living space for her and made sure it was paid. He said it was no trouble against the hospital her father owned, just as long as she kept her mouth shut about who her father was. Only her words could damage his reputation... She grabbed the left over rice from her refridgerator and some of the vegitables. She would eat light that way she could get to her homework quickly and be ready for class tomorrow.

Zeru stripped out of his uniform and hung it up so that it wouldn’t wrinkle, he had realized a long time ago even if his uniform was dirty to not just thrown it on the ground because it would wrinkle to fast and wrinkles were hard to get out. He slipped on some sweat pants and a black t-shirt. Then he grabbed a small hair tie and tied his hair back as much as he could as he walked out of his room. He walked to his father’s room, Zeru knew that his father didn’t care that much about his room; it was the study that his father didn’t want him to clean. This only meant that it was a pigsty in there, but none the less he would clean it as soon as he could get through the door.
He started on picking up all the dirty laundry and placing it in the basket, and then he moved on to the dishes and brought those to the kitchen. He returned to the room with the vacuum, Zeru finished that up quickly and then grabbed the laundry basket. On his way to the back room he place the dirty laundry in the wash room and then moved onto the back room “Dad open up” he called not even bothering to knock on the door. He heard his father rustling around “Quit being a child” he told him then sighed and ran a hand over his face. He walked into the kitchen and rummaged through a drawer “Perfect” he said to himself and then walked back to his father’s door. When did the child start becoming the parent?Jett said, sarcasm dripping off his words. “Shut up Jett” he snapped “I’ll give you one more chance before I open the door myself” Zeru warning and counted to three in his head, he then leaned down and slipped the thin nail file into the jam of the door. He had done this so many times that it only took a few seconds to open the door this way. With that done the door slid open and Zeru stood in the door frame berating his father for being so childish.
Once he was able to look around the room he wanted to groan himself but knew that it would hurt his father’s feelings and Zeru knew that it wasn’t really his fault, it was just his creative process for his novels. Plus if Zeru wanted to keep eating and going to school he would leave his father coop however he saw fit. He went through the same process with this room and once done started with the dishes in the kitchen.
By the time all the chores were done and his homework Zeru was exhausted and Jett had fallen asleep hours ago. This was the time that Zeru enjoyed the most even though he was thoroughly exhausted. He laid down on his bed staring up at the ceiling enjoying the quiet and didn’t realized when he had fallen asleep.

(Sorry squirrel, went on a holiday and didn't have internet for a few days) Yukina woke up to her alarm going off, for once on time. The only problem was she didn't feel like getting up. It was Friday right? Suposed to be a good day, if she didn't feel so sore. She'd danced her ass off yesterday and all that walking afterwards had left a strain in her. Not to mention she also fell asleep after her shower with wet hair and without any covers or heat. She stretched and felt her head, coming back with a bit of heat. Wasn't too bad and hell, she'd wethered through worse. She went into her closet and pulled on her uniform, looking herself over in the mirror before she went to the kitchen to start fixing something for lunch for her and Maka. She was right in the middle of placing a bit of rice cake in the box when she heard her phone trill. She looked it over and saw it was an unknown number. Not sure what to do with it, guessing it must be a wrong number, she tossed the phone in her bag and grabbed her lunch. Off to school she went, sort of in a fog past the bit of fever she had. It was nothing serious, just enough to make her feel tired. She instead chose to thumb through her notes, in hopes that maybe she could understand at least a little bit of the Math before her first class. But of course her mind wandered to the audition. 'I wonder if I even did okay. It's not like they give you feed back...' She thought and sighed. She needed to get out of this funk so she put on a smile and held her head up high. She would have started skipping she might have tripped so she kept herself in a happy walk. If she couldn't make her day better she would atleast try to make someone elses better!

Zeru hadn’t woken up to an alarm clock in several months, even when he would set one he usually woke up before it went off. Today was no different even though he hadn’t even set an alarm last night but he got out of bed and put his uniform on. He made his way to the bathroom and brushed out his hair though if he had it his way he would have just left it messy but the school had rules about messy hair on guys and even if a girl’s hair was too long in their book meaning two inches past the shoulders it had to be tied up. Zeru shook his head and just walked out of the bathroom and headed into the kitchen, he only felt like eating a small bowl of cereal and then he was out the door.
Today he didn’t want to bug his father with breakfast and just let him sleep. On his walk to school it felt peaceful, Jett wasn’t bugging him, it was sunny out and he didn’t feel that tired. He slipped his backpack up onto his shoulder and stuffed his hands into his coat pockets. “Hey man, what’s going on this morning?” “Yeah, what’s up with you? We didn’t even see you yesterday at club activities” “Huh?” Zeru looked up and saw Kenji and Takado walking next to him “Oh yea, sorry about that. I’ll be there today, something kind of came up yesterday” Takado looked at Zeru and he looked a little too happy “Does it have anything to do with that lower classman?” “What? No way. Besides why do you care?” Zeru pushed Takado and he just laughed “You know it’s cool if you like her I would just watch it around all the other girls cause if you start showing that you like her they are going to get jealous and make her life hell and she doesn’t look like the type that could handle that” “Don’t you think I know that” “Come on guys, stop arguing, we are here already” Kenji whined as they walked onto campus.

Yukina blinked, her head feeling kinda fuzzy at the moment. She may have misjudged that slight fever but she wouldn't let it get to her now since she was at school. She spotted Sayuri and Maka walking and hurried over to them. She tripped mid run and ran into Maka's back. "Yuki!" Maka said in shock and ukina straightened, blushing a bit. "Sorry I couldn't keep my balance!" Sayuri laughed at her sheepish smile. "Don't worry so much. Maka needed a good surprise. What's up with you though? You look a bit..." Sayuri couldn't get a grasp on the word as she looked at her tired looking friend but Yukina gave her a shrug. "What I feel fine! My audition was wonderful, I had a wonderful sleep, and I woke up on time!" She giggled and Sayuri gave a small cheer with her while Maka clapped lightly. "Okay, nevermind. You seem to be in a better mood than usual." Yukina nodded as they walked along, herself wondering if she would run into Zeru again. She needed to thank him for yesterday, it was thanks to him she made it to her studio on time.

Like on most normal days the boys walk onto campus with Zeru in the front and the other two boys on either side of him. The students that were still in the quad stopped their conversations and looked their way, Zeru tried to ignore it as much as he could. He kind of hated being stared at and even more he didn’t like to be talked about. But that was another thing that he couldn’t stop, as they walked through the quad he could hear several people whispering about one thing or another ‘well now, if they feared you they wouldn’t talk or stare at you’ Jett finally popped in with his opinion and Zeru just kept his eyes forward ignoring everything thing for the moment.
“Keiichirou-san!” “Kei-san” a couple of girls screamed as they ran up to Zeru but he hadn’t even heard them but Takado and Kenji stepped in front of them, stopping them before they could get to him. Zeru on the other hand just kept walking. “What’s wrong with Kei-san?” A third girl asked walking up to the two. They looked over their shoulders at him and were still confused themselves “He’s got a lot on his mind…” Takado told them and then Kenji popped in “Yes very busy, he’s even been asked to take over student council president” The girls mouths dropped and Takado thumped Kenji on the head “Well now that the cats out of the bag looks like we get to be on damage control thank you Kenji-san” “Oops” With that information the three girls ran off to spread the news and Takado kicked Kenji’s ass all the way into the school “Zeru wait up” they caught up with him just as he was walking into the classroom. “Keiichirou-san I am so sorry, I didn’t mean to spill the news” Zeru looked up at Kenji as he was bowing and his brows knitted together ‘what is your moronic friend talking about?’ Jett voiced Zeru’s very thoughts “What news?” Kenji was shocked, he looked at Zeru funny and then to Takado “Oops, I did it again didn’t I Takado” Takado clenched his jaw and nodded his head sharply at Kenji “Why don’t you just go watch the door while I have a talk with Zeru” “Ok” With that Kenji bolted to the door and closed it and leaned against it.
Takado pulled up a chair and sat down in front of Zeru “Is someone going to tell me what is going on?” Zeru crossed his arms and leaned back in his chair “Satonaka-san asked me to talk to you about taking over as student council president” Now that was something that he wasn’t expecting “he said that he knows that it means that you will have to give up your club activities and take on a whole lot more but he couldn’t think of anyone better suited for the position at this time” “He still has one semester left before he has to pick someone, why now? Why me?” Zeru asked and Takado got up from his chair “That you are going to have to ask him yourself” Zeru was left in the room by himself with class about to start and now with even more on his mind.
Zeru leaned forward and placed his head in his hands, what was he going to do now? He was tired, already had so much going on, had to deal with Jett and his father plus he couldn’t get Yuki out of his head and now he was being asked to take over student council for which he didn’t really have a choice but to say yes.

Yukina had been talking with Sayuri when they entered the class. As soon as the door slid open the noise from all the girls hit them. Everyone was talking and babbling on about something, some hot gossip that had most blushing and giggling while the guys either talked with enthusiasm too or were annoyed by all the attention the gossip was getting. "What's going on?" Maka asked aloud as they took their seats and one of the girls turned. "Keiichirou-san is going to become the new student council president!" The girls behind her let out another round of giggles and Yukina blinked. "Who?" She said and and the girls gasped. Sayuri let out a nervous laugh at the girls harsh stares and leaned in close to Yukina's ear. "Keiichirou Zeru, Yuki." "Oh, congragulations to him." She said with enthusiasm and one of the girls shook her head. "Gosh Yuki, so blonde, You didn't even know who Zeru-sempai is-""Oh no I do know him, well not well, but Zeru is very nice. He'd make a good president." The girls blinked at her some glaring. "How disrespectful, you shouldn't refer to your sempai that way." "It's just the American part of her speaking." The girls looked away and went back to talking making Yuki frown slightly. She didn't get what she did to make them mad with her so she simply shrugged it off and went back to talking with Sayuri. Meanwhile she couldn't help but think about Zeru. He really was a good guy, he'd be a good president, especially since all the girls liked him and he was good looking, most likely smart. She then thought back on him helping her yesterday and smiled a bit.

'So what are you going to do now golden boy' Jett snickered loudly and Zeru smacked his head. As much as that hurt him it was better then having Jett talking cause it would also give him a headache 'you did that on purpose' "Damn straight I did" Zeru sneered, then he placed his hands on his desk and was about to get up when several people filed into the classroom. 'oh boy, here we go' he thought to himself 'oh yes, here we go' Jett mimicked Zeru but was happy unlike Zeru. But being the guy he was he put on his best smile for the girls walking in. He could already tell that the news spread about him becoming student council president.
"Oh Keiichirou-sempai, is it true?" "Oh you are going to make the best president Kei-san" A few girls walked up to him just as he was getting to his feet, he rubbed the back of his neck a little nervous. He wasn't sure what to say to them, he was going to try to turn down the offer but he wasn't sure how well that was going to go. "You can't do that job Zeru-san" he looked up from some of the girls that were surrounding him and squealing and saw a tall blonde walk into the classroom headed his way. She was known almost as well as he was, not to mention she had been trying to date him since his first year at the school. "Well Chika-san things are still in the planing stage and I believe that it is my decision in the end" if it was one person that he could stand up to it was her, he hated how confident she thought she was. Her jaw just dropped and Zeru smirked at her "Yea that's right Chika-Sempai" "Zeru-san can do anything hmph" His smiled turned into a pleasant smile when a few lower classman stood up for him "Now why don't you run along to your homeroom Chika-san" he told her and bypassed her out of the classroom.
He made his way through the hallways and getting stopped several times by other students who wanted to ask about the current gossip. Zeru really wished that Takado and Kenji could be on crowd control but they had to be in class. Zeru was sure that his teacher had already been informed that he would be in the student council room. He walked up to the door and knocked. "Please come in Zeru-san, the president has been waiting for you" He sighed heavily and walked inside over to his desk. "I'm only here to discuss your proposition of student council president and I want to know why now and why me?" Zeru straight out told him and he waved everyone else out of the room.

Yukina looked up as the teacher came in and straightened. He cleared his throat after putting his stuff down and looked at the class. "Good morning class." He said and then looked arond the room as if looking for someone. Yukina thought it was odd, especially when he looked directly at her. "Ah, Ms.Takeda, thankyou for your help yesterday after school. The classroom was spotless." Yukina blushed and fidgetted nervously. "Thank you but about that-" "Anyways class," He began as if she hadn't spoken. Yukina looked down a bit whispering a small apology to Zeru for not saying he'd really done it. Yukina was having trouble focusing, well not that she ever really could focus under high pressure like in a math class. She always seemed to zone out when faced with something she didn't understand. She fidgeted with her pencil to keep herself busy though it didn't help much. People were paying attention but Yukina could see some of them were texting. Most likely the gossip hadn't gotten old yet. She thought about the auditions again and checked her own phone. That missed call was still there from the unknown number. Was that maybe her instructors new number? She thought about asking to go to the bathroom to call the number back but thought again. Perhaps it was nothing...but then why did it bother her to look at the number? She shook that off and tossed the phone into her pocket.
